Itinéraire
Dans la matinée, nous allons à Stonehenge et arrivons avant les grands groupes afin que l'expérience soit plus mémorable et plus spéciale. Nos guides savent tout ce qu'il y a à savoir sur Stonehenge et leur passion ajoutera à votre expérience globale.
Dans l'après-midi, nous visiterons le magnifique musée des thermes romains. Le seul endroit en Angleterre où vous pouvez voir les eaux thermales naturelles à côté d'un temple romain. La ville s'appelait autrefois Aqaue Sulis et partage des origines romaines et celtiques. Ce magnifique musée vous laissera bouche bée quand vous verrez à quel point le sol de 2000 ans a été bien entretenu. Outre le temple, Bath offre de magnifiques boutiques et une architecture du XVIIIe siècle, entièrement réinventée en tant que ville thermale. Queen Square, Circus et Royal Crescent ne sont que quelques-uns des magnifiques motifs de John Wood. Votre guide vous fascinera avec des histoires des origines romaines au glamour géorgien et donnera vie à l'histoire de Bath!
Sur le chemin du retour à Londres, vous pourrez admirer certains des plus beaux paysages d’Angleterre alors que nous retournons dans l’Angleterre du 18ème siècle. Votre guide vous éclairera sur ce qui était autrefois le commerce le plus lucratif d'Europe. Laine de Cotswold. Des villages comme Castle Combe ont prospéré dans l’industrie de la laine et ont créé un petit village parfait avec d’étonnants cottages de tisserands et une église. Si vous aimez les promenades à la campagne, parlez-en à votre guide. Vous pouvez également emprunter un sentier public pour vivre une véritable expérience de l'Angleterre rurale.
Lors de cette visite, vous avez le choix de visiter le château de Combe ou l'abbaye de Lacock. Lacock Village est beaucoup plus grand que Castle Combe et peut-être pas aussi pittoresque, mais c'est un must pour les fans de Harry Potter à la recherche des lieux de tournage des films épiques!

Best pick for traveling the British countryside! Our lovely guide Peter Iles made this trip the most enjoyable part of our time in London. His easy manner and deep command of the history of the region made for a very enriching experience. He explains Stonehenge as if a scholar and had an infectious enthusiasm for explaining the theories behind this monument. He made it feel like even though this monument is in Britain, it represents the ancient wisdom that is certainly in all our ancestors pasts. I wish we had more time here to arrange other trips with Peter as our guide!
Peter’s vast and in depth knowledge of the history of the region made for a very enriching experience - I cannot recommend highly enough!
A very interesting day. Our guide Oz was a history buff which helped us to understand the political and history of the UK.
Excellent experience. Christian was great. Very informative and fun. Customized the tour to our likes. Highly recommend.
It was a full day, but the car was very comfortable and we got to see everything we wanted to plus more! Dave the guide was friendly and very knowledgeable. Would highly recommend!
Our guide Christian M. was amazing! So incredibly informed/educated about the area and sites. A lot of fantastic history education mixed with some great "dad" jokes. He went out of his way to be sure we had a fantastic day and part of that was really knowing his stuff and being incredibly organized. Castle Combe is not to be missed!
This was a wonderful day. Our guide was Christian, who did everything possible to make our day fantastic. He was knowledgable, knew the areas completely and made everything go smoothly and easily. The timing of the day was perfect. This trip was one of the highlights of our visit to the UK.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re absolutely delighted to hear that you had such a wonderful day with Christian. He’ll be thrilled to know his knowledge and care helped make your experience so special. It’s great to hear that everything ran smoothly and that the timing felt just right, that's exactly what we aim for. We’re honoured to have been a highlight of your visit to the UK and truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience :) We hope to welcome you again on another adventure in the future!
Absolutely the BEST tour we've ever been on! Oz is not just a tour guide but a friend and great wealth of knowledge! We had two amazing day trips with Oz as our tour guide. He made each tour specific to our likes. We even stopped for coffee on the way to Stonehenge because of that stop he checked the Google Maps and it showed an accident on 303 hwy. Which we took a detour, but the bigger busses always stay on the path despite accidents on the roadways, We got to Stonehenge before everyone else and had it all to ourselves for 15 mins which is unheard of! He walked us through talking about the site and answering all our questions good, bad and the ugly. . Even when we went to Bath he already had an idea we wanted a good steak and ale pie, he had looked it up the night before and suggested The Raven which was one of the best pies and pints we had. I know it seems kinda pricy BUT TRUST ME IT IS WORTH EVERY PENNY! The one one experience is so worth it! If you were to splurge on a once in a lifetime trip I would pick this company hands down! By the time this ended we were planning another trip via this amazing company. He say's he has people who specialize in different locations. We are now looking to book with them for Wales, S. England and N. England going into Scotland. We also hired Tailored Tours to help us get from our hotel to Fullers Brewery > OVO Wembley for a concert > and Pickup from OVO to our hotel. Richard was our driver that day and what a wonderful man who made our experience so easy. Which we were worried about coming to an unknown country and trying to figure out concert logistics.
This is exactly the kind of review that makes what we do so worthwhile—thank you so much for taking the time to share it. It was a real pleasure spending those days with you both, and I’m glad it felt relaxed and tailored rather than rushed or “tick-box”. That’s always the aim :) I’m very happy to hear you enjoyed your pie and mash in Bath as well, and I’ll be sure to pass on your kind words on to Richard as well—he also said he really enjoyed meeting you both. Whenever you’re ready to plan the next trip, whether it’s Wales, further north, or anywhere else, just let me know and we’ll build something just as memorable. Thanks again, and hopefully see you back over here soon! Oz
We had an amazing private tour with Oz. Super flexible with our time in every location. Very impressed with his history knowledge. Would recommend to anyone wanting to visit these locations, tour was a long day but didn’t feel long and was my kids favorite day in London!
Thank you so much for such a kind review! I’m really glad you all enjoyed the day, especially that it ended up being your kids’ favourite day in London :) that really means a lot. Thanks again for sharing your kind words and come see us again soon
Christian was an amazing tour guide. He was very flexible in helping to tailor our visit to some places that were not initially included with the tour and was very knowledgeable about the area - with amusing stories and anecdotes. We would definitely request Christian's services in the future.
Thanks so much for the lovely feedback, we’re really glad you enjoyed your time with Christian! His flexibility and storytelling are exactly what make him such a great guide. We’d be delighted to welcome you back and arrange another tour with him in the future :)
